Groundhog Day (1993) stars Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell and directed by Harold Ramis. Made 5 times its budget so must be classed as a big success. I love itgreat premise thats been used a few times. Murray and Ramis fell out for ever over the way it was made too.

“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

Tonight a war film in the train from 1964. Burt Lancaster, Paul Scofield and Jeanne Moreau star.
Directed by John Frankenheimer and shot in B & W, and based on the factual 1961 book Le front de l'art by Rose Valland, the art historian at the Galerie nationale du Jeu de Paume, who documented the works of art placed in storage there that had been looted by the Germans from museums and private art collections throughout France and were being sorted for shipment to Germany in World War II.

'Wheeler Dealers' - Pontiac GTO
My second favourite Pontiac after the Firebird. It's the Jim Rockford connection that is the clincher.

Hell or High Water .
Jeff Bridges - not a bad watch at all, surprised me in the end
Every time I watch him now ,I have to recall his performance in Thunderbolt and Lightfoot with Clint !!
I only ride 'em, I don't know what makes 'em work

George Kennedy was my favourite 'heavy' beacuse of Thunderbolt and Lightfoot.
Freaked out as a kid about internal bleeding becaue of this film...helluva last scene.
Back up to date, thought the dialogue between Jeff Bridges and his indian Deputy in Hell Or High Water was superb.
Chris Pine acted everyone else off the screen, Bridges included I thought?
Letting go and relaxing
is the most ‘in control’ thing you can do

Three Days of the Condor (1975) directed by Sydney Pollack and starring Robert Redford, Faye Dunaway, Cliff Robertson, and Max von Sydow. Great political thriller this; probably still the best of type.
